Application of Received Quantities
A one-to-one correspondence does not necessarily exist between required quantities on flow scheduled orders and quantities received. You can specify which flow schedule should have the quantity applied to it if it is associated with an existing work order. However, a schedule can include orders without referenced work orders.
When a work order is specified during receipt, the system applies the entire quantity to the associated flow scheduled order, even if it is greater than the open quantity. This also updates the Quantity Completed field for the specified order in Work Order Maintenance.
When you leave the Work Order field blank in Flow Schedule Receipts, the system uses this logic:
Note: Receipts are applied to a flow scheduled order with an associated work order only when you enter the work order number in Flow Schedule Receipts. This logic never applies completed quantities to orders that include a value in the Work Order field.
• First, apply the receipt to flow schedules with open quantities where the flow schedule due date is the same as the receipt due date.
• If no flow schedules with open quantities exist with that due date or if those that do have total open quantities less than the amount being received, begin with the earliest due date and sequence number showing an open quantity and move forward until the entire receipt quantity is applied.
• If the receipt still has an unapplied quantity:
• If the receipt process filled open quantities for the receipt due date, apply any remaining receipt quantity to the last sequence number for that date, even if the quantity completed is greater than the order quantity.
• If the receipt date does not match the due date for any flow schedules that have had completions applied, create a new flow schedule for the receipt due date. Set the quantity scheduled to 0 (zero) and apply the entire remaining amount as completions for this new schedule.
Note: Receipts are never to applied to orders with due dates later than the value you specify in Due Date.
